Part-time (15-20 hrs) Youth Tennis Assistant Coaching Positions
Founded in 1999, Tenacity's mission is to improve the scholastic, character, and physical development of urban youth through a combination of academic instruction and tennis instruction/competition with a focus on life skills. Over the last ten years Tenacity has evolved from its original after-school model to become an active participant in school reform. Tenacity's programs offer a Pathway to Excellence and together serve 5500 youth annually. Tenacity offers 4 programs. Our core program, The Middle School Academy (MSA) is an intensive three year program consisting of academic enrichment, homework help, study/life skills development and tennis programming. The MSA currently serves over 200 at-risk middle school students approximately 4 days/week for 3 hours/day, with program time equally split between academics and tennis. The other two school year programs are an Elementary School Program which starts with 4th graders. This program will help identify "right fit" youth as we extend our reach into the city's middle and K-8 schools for Tenacity's pathway programs, introducing college success as a goal while providing academic and tennis instruction. After completing the MSA program, students continue in the College Prep/Alumni Program which serves 280 high school students, graduates of the MSA providing academic support and mentorship, including a "Right-Fit" High School selection process, comprehensive college prep programming, to ensure success in high school and in post secondary education. Our 4th program, The Summer Reading & Tennis Program serves 5000 youth ages 6-16, providing literacy, tennis and wellness programming in July and August, preventing summer reading level loss.
